Members of white supremacist and antisemitic hate groups marched outside Orlando, Florida, on Saturday screaming invectives, raising the Nazi salute, and yelling “Heil Hitler” and “white power.”
“We are everywhere!” neo-Nazis can be heard shouting in a video shared by former Florida House of Representatives member Anna V. Eskamani. Later in the footage, they yelled, “Heil Hitler” while performing a Nazi salute.
The m249 machine gun has a cyclic rate of fire of at least 650 rounds per minute with a sustained rate of fire exceeding 100 rounds per minute. From a stable firing position and with the aid of a bipod, it is possible to accurately lay down sustained suppressing fire on a mass of targets at will, providing that spare barrels and ammunition containers are at hand.
Unrelated, just thought I’d post some trivia
“Make Shooting Nazis in the Face Normal Again”
I mean, we did have a 4-year long federally-funded convention for that back in the early 1940s. I’d like to see us bring that sort of energy back.
Tack on a radio and a few other dudes with M4s and 203s…baby you got a fire team goin
Imagine what the Basterds could have done with some Saws or Pigs….
Imagine what uncle Billy Sherman could have done with saws and pigs.
Fire was all he needed, Sherman didn’t burn far enough
I’m confused. Is it 650 rounds per minute or 100 rounds per minute?
650+ rounds is the cyclic rate but it will overheat if continuously fired that quickly. At 100 rpm it can be used sustainably
Wikipedia on M249 has this info though:

also, 3,600 m (11,800 ft) effective firing range 👀. Although probably only a handful of people that can accurately hit at that range.
Ahh, fuck
Uncle Sherman knew how to use this trivia effectively.
